Update!

Hey everyone!
Just wanted to give another quick update. I know it has been a while since the last one but I have been SUPER busy! I have therapy and school and just everything in between! I went to St. Lucy's Rose and Candle ceremony and was so happy I got to see all my friends! In therapy, they are working more on my hip control- Kristel said the reason I am getting my hips back the fastest is because I am Lebanese and we know how to dance right :). With more hip control, I will be able to learn to crawl, with assistance of course. They are working on my goal to stand alone but the issue is that I have a hypertension in my knees and the only to get rid of it is to strength my hamstrings (which I do not have control over yet). Jillienne also wants to try walking me (With the trainers doing the movement for me) soon. I can't wait! That is the first step!! I have also been doing the FES bike 3 times a week at Casa Colina for an hour before or after therapy to keep my muscle mass. I can not wait to walk. I know people have been like this for years, but I am not one of them. I need to walk!

The website is almost done! And I will let you know when it is up:)
God Bless!
Love always,
